New srock Moto G Stock not rooted. Initially I was only using WiFi and I was getting update notifications for Kit Kat which I was able to delay. Subsequently I have aded a sim card and service and now it shows update is currently being downloaded. How do I stop Kit Kat from being installed? If there is no way to abort the update will I be asked if I want to install once the update is finished? TIA.

Once the update is downloaded you'll be asked whether you want to install it. Unless you root your only options is to delay the installation by 24 hours.

If rooted you can freeze the ota app with titanium backup.

Tell Google that, not us.

it's annoying for the system to be asking everytime if i want to update, it even says i dont have enough space to update and keeps asking. I heard of stopping motorola ota will solve the problem, untill now it has.

I, like you, wanted to stop kitkat from updating over the air from ATT so I called them, they said there was nothing they could do, but to call Samsung. I called Samsung, they said there was nothing they could do, call Google.
Well, I didnt call Google, but I did find a work around, and that consists of clearing the android cache, and now I am not being nagged to update on a wifi connection by ATT. Actually, I am not being nagged at all at this point.
Here are the instructions for clearing the Android Cache: (as told by a Samsung Employee)
Zabrina: Please follow these steps:
Zabrina: 1.Power the device off (remove and re-insert the battery).
Zabrina: 2.Press and hold the Volume Up key and the Home key, then press and hold the Power key.
Zabrina: 3.When the first boot screen displays; release only the Power key.
Zabrina: 4.When the Android system recovery menu displays; release the Volume Up and the Home key.
Zabrina: 5.Navigate with the Volume keys to the wipe cache and press the Power key to select.
I hope this helps you

[Q] Questions about Ultrabeast ROM on Miro

I have some questions about ultrabeast rom.
My device is Sony Xperia Miro ST23i 11.0.A.5.5 rooted,locked bootloader.
1.Is twrp supported?
When I was trying to install rom with twrp,
I got bootloop. but when I tried with cwm it worked!
2.GMail,Maps,Youtube not installed?
After flashing the rom,I flashed the gapps.zip,but only play store was installed and work well.
GMail,Maps,Youtube was not available in home launcher.So I download these apps from play store.
3.Is cwm included in gapps?
When I tried to boot into recovery,phone just reboot.
4.GPU Driver Update?
When I was on stock rom 11.0.A.5.5,I flash Adreno_ICS_Update available in attachments.
After flashing that file,lag reduced in all games.
Then if I flash the file in ultrabeast rom,will games run more smoothly?
This is first working rom on my Miro.
previously I tried to flash gimlo but because cwm is beta for miro,
I cannot wipe system.
1 only cwm with locked bootloader for now ( i think)...2 only playstore and some other usefull google apps included... 3 wtf? why to include cwm in gapps? xD 4 post the link of adreno (not the zip)

Pin lock recovery mode

Hi,
is there any way to prevent someone to get into recovery mode without our consent, with maybe some code? I google it but didn't find an answer!

You can always return to stock rom with the kies program from samsung so i dont know why you have all these problem because you clearly seem like someone who has zero skills so why mess with roms if you cant even restore bro?

I will not answer any questions about Magisk, you want it, then it's up to you to figure how to install it.
I original made this rom for my personel use and decided I would share it with you.
I have no need for magisk as any root method is my priority, for my needs supersu is more than adequate.
There's a good search tool on XDA as well as "Google is your friend"
WE MUST GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO @tomparr FOR HIS F2FS FIX

You'll have to do a standard wipe and flash.

Based on the baseband ending in -47 (as opposed to -57 as I've heard reported as the nougat ota baseband) I assume this does not touch baseband/modems at all?
Thanks much for getting this out here so quickly.
Nice!

Can i go back to my super optimized marshmallow with a twrp back up if anything goes wrong/dont like nougat?
This is smooth as silk. Now just need root to be complete. Thanks again man!
---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 AM ----------
Couple things. Factory sounds don't seem to work in Gmail. and that notification "bug" exists In this build of nougat.
So, first I need to open bootloader, flash TWRP and then flash the update, am I right??
Just to be sure
